The visual power of the staircase leading up to the gallery above attracts me. I think that because I grew up without stairs, in a single story house, I am intrigued by the mysteries of a multi-level building - a mystery employed to great effect in the visuals of film and television. Here I am looking at the structure of the stairs, the patterns of treads and the spaces between. Choice of material is arbitrary - to do purely with my sensual relationship with the making of the work.
